    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenants' reviews for 238 East 14th Street highlight convenient location, in-unit washer/dryer, and responsive super as positives. However, issues with pests (mice and roaches), package theft, and noisy surroundings are recurring concerns. While some appreciate the building's responsiveness, others mention a lack of timely actions on pest control and heating problems.

    You get what you pay for
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Close proximity to the L train and Union Square Station, and located on the edge of the East Village
    Washer/Dryers in most (if not all) units in the building
    Modern appliances
    Competitively priced
    Cons:
    Rent increased year over year by ~30%
    Incredibly loud neighborhood, especially if your unit faces 14th Street
    Very young tenants - recent college grads and current students
    Severe mice/rodent problem that does not get addressed in a timely manner. Our unit had mice in it all the time.
    Heaters during the winter weren't working properly (At first, eventually were fixed after a few weeks)
    Hot water would occasionally run out in the building for entire days (usually fixed within 24 hours)
    Advice to owner:
    Take better control on the pest problem, be more responsive when tenants reach out about pest & heating problems
    Over 3 years ago

    Former Tenant
